Nice one, sweet and simple, I like the fact this is IE unfriendly ;)
most of my users are IE unfriendlies too so this would push the IE users to a better browser ;)

Yes, to have this work with IE. If you can pull that off, you are the Master in my book. ;)

hope that you will first fix that to work with IE, before you begin with more advanced hacks!

Ok I'll Try But I Dont Think IE Has This Feature
=========UPDATE=========
Ok I Think I Almost Pulled It Off
I Almost Finished A Code That Will Make Text Blink In Both Mozillla Firefox An IE
But The Thing Is That It Blinks A Bit Slower In IE

The blink html code does not work in IE and probably never will - even if the coding is css ;)

Dont worry about the text blinking slower in IE, it's just IE, it is slower by default in all ways ;)
Sorry, off topic and hijacking a thread to insult IE, bad man phr34q!
anyways, I installed it and we are loving it already :D

By using JavaScript this should be cross browser compatible. Note, I have not had time to test this so if someone can report back if it works...
<blink>{param}<blink>
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function doBlink() {
var blink = document.all.tags("BLINK")
for (var i=0; i<blink.length; i++)
blink[i].style.visibility = blink[i].style.visibility == "" ? "hidden" : ""
}
function startBlink() {
if (document.all)
setInterval("doBlink()",1000)
}
window.onload = startBlink;
// -->
</script>
Edit: Seems I was posting as someone else was and both found the same code but from different resources. Checked working on IE7. Does not work on WebTV.

Wheres the point in adding <span etc etc when you could do <blink>text here</blink> ...
